My husband sent the papers as mentioned in this website, we are gc holders and were really apprenhensive whether they will get the visa because i'm the only child. we sent only one 134 though for both my parents. We don't know for how many months they gave the visa ...will update u again on that. Questions asked were:

2. How many children u have?
one daughter ( officer briefly paused to look at my parents again)

I am the eldest son of a big family of 9 brothers and sisters, own property etc...
4. So you are the eldest son?
yes
5. What does your daughter do?

6. Do you have her passport copy?
Dad submitted my passport copy.
7. Some other question which my dad did not understand properly as to when he came back from US to which he answered that this is his first visit and that he a retired employee etc.

they did not ask my mom any questions and asked to pay the fees and told them that their passports will be sent by mail in 2-3 days.

Hi all,

Congratulations to all who have got their visas approved.
My parent's visa was rejected on 2nd April, though they had all the documents. Would like to know when can we re-apply and do the officer specifically ask for documents or do we submit each doc for each question asked.Do they reject it the first time to make money.
I am a US Citizen, is there anything I can do from here.

Affidavit for sister too?
I am planning to invite my parents and unmarried sister of 22yrs to visit me. I see from the sample documents that my parents need affidavits for themselves. Would my sister need to get one for herself too? Since she is still a student would she instead get a letter from her Institution? Any suggestions would be welcome.

Visitor visa for brother got rejected at chennai consulate
My brother (29 yrs old) went for the visa (04/02/2004) and his visa got rejected based on 214(b). He is working in India and has vacation during the month of May. So, he was planning to visit us for a month here, and go back to his work starting of June. He had all the documents needed to prove this. Would getting a letter from the senator help him in this scenario? If so, when we should get this letter from the senator and when would be an ideal time for him to reappear for the visa? Totally, his visa has been rejected twice already. Any any would be appreciated. Thnx!
